Me: God, if you're there, please lift this rock (a TINY rock, so small any ant could lift it. Guess what? You're right, the rock was NOT lifted by God. Not even by an ant or even the wind.)

Them: You didn't put your hands right.

Me: Screw you, God.

What were your most stupid arguments with Christians?

PS: I KNOW those who are less delusional KNOW that religion is just a piece of **** created to manipulate people. Otherwise they would have proved it already. I also know the second question was kinda stupid but since most Christians are also stupid I just thought it would work with them.

I just wanted to point out that it is unfair to say "most christians are also stupid" when in reality most People are stupid and christians are just so darned obvious. Also I don't believe there is such a thing as a less delusional christian. If a christian recognizes the delusion they are no longer christian by biblegod's standards.

to actually answer the post I have been (un)fortunte enough to have had thousands of "discussions" with my minister father over my lifetime and the one answer I could never get over was to the question, "If we go to heaven anda loved one doesn't how can heaven be such a happy place when we have knowledge of our loved ones' suffering?". His answer was, "when we go to heaven we will just be souls, and in order for us to be happy we will not remember those who did not make it to heaven".

I took this in for a second and followed up with, "so you believe we will not retain our earthly identities in heaven?", appearantly this is what he beleived so I ellaborated, "so you love me and mom now but in heaven you will not recognize us as any different from anyone else who has died and gone to heaven in the history of mankind?" again he smiled and said "yes".

At this point I got up and walked away mumbling under my breath how heaven sounds like a pretty shitty idea, i still hadnt recognized my pregressing deconversion so i chalked it up to my own inability to grasp "perfection".

they are what the delusional call doubting thomases (dammit that stounds stupid). I personally accepted that I could be wrong about god for many years and still held on to the delusion that he was real and if i doubted him I was personally insulting a potentially powerful being. Those who "claim to be christians" probably do so because of the residual damage caused by the years of indoctrination, they cant' call themselves agnostics because doing so will anger skydaddy - and this fear means they are still unable to accept the delusion as a delusion

(this was the first time i've publicly referred to biblegod as skydaddy, and while that may not mean much to most of you it just dawned on me how big a step that was. I also realized i wasnt struck down.... yet)

My uncle said such a thing and LO! 48 years, 8 months and 23 days to the day he hit his thumb with a hammer and it really hurt...

Nobody says “There are many things that we thought were natural processes, but now know that a god did them.”

I can relate to the feeling-- that if you stop being religious, you will spend your life ducking the lightning bolts! It takes a while, but after you blaspheme a bunch of times and nothing happens, the feeling will pass.

Yup, agreed. There are plenty of people accepting evolution, yet their reasons for doing so appear shallow and almost religious. It's nice on one hand that they're accepting it, but I'd much prefer them to at least understand some of the basic principles that underpin it.
